2. Overview: The Cellular Internet

• Cell-to-cell communication is essential for
multicellular organisms
• Biologists have discovered some universal
mechanisms of cellular regulation
• The combined effects of multiple signals
determine cell response
• For example, the dilation of blood vessels is
controlled by multiple molecules

5. Evolution of Cell Signaling

• A signal transduction pathway is a series
of steps by which a signal on a cell’s surface
is converted into a specific cellular response
• Signal transduction pathways convert signals
on a cell’s surface into cellular responses

9. Local and Long-Distance Signaling

• Cells in a multicellular organism communicate
by chemical messengers
• Animal and plant cells have cell junctions that
directly connect the cytoplasm of adjacent cells
• In local signaling, animal cells may
communicate by direct contact, or cell-cell
recognition

• In many other cases, animal cells communicate
using local regulators, messenger molecules
that travel only short distances
• In long-distance signaling, plants and animals
use chemicals called hormones

• Earl W. Sutherland discovered how the
hormone epinephrine acts on cells
• Sutherland suggested that cells receiving
signals went through three processes:
– Reception
– Transduction
– Response

19. Concept 11.2: Reception: A signal molecule binds to a receptor protein, causing it to change shape

• The binding between a signal molecule
(ligand) and receptor is highly specific
• A shape change in a receptor is often the initial
transduction of the signal
• Most signal receptors are plasma membrane
proteins
Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

20. Receptors in the Plasma Membrane

• Most water-soluble signal molecules bind to
specific sites on receptor proteins in the
plasma membrane
• There are three main types of membrane
receptors:
– G protein-coupled receptors
– Receptor tyrosine kinases
– Ion channel receptors
Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

21.

• A G protein-coupled receptor is a plasma
membrane receptor that works with the help of
a G protein
• The G protein acts as an on/off switch: If GDP
is bound to the G protein, the G protein is
inactive

• A ligand-gated ion channel receptor acts as a
gate when the receptor changes shape
• When a signal molecule binds as a ligand to
the receptor, the gate allows specific ions, such
as Na+ or Ca2+, through a channel in the
receptor

28. Intracellular Receptors

• Some receptor proteins are intracellular, found
in the cytosol or nucleus of target cells
• Small or hydrophobic chemical messengers
can readily cross the membrane and activate
receptors
• Examples of hydrophobic messengers are the
steroid and thyroid hormones of animals
• An activated hormone-receptor complex can
act as a transcription factor, turning on specific
genes

34. Concept 11.3: Transduction: Cascades of molecular interactions relay signals from receptors to target molecules in the cell

• Signal transduction usually involves multiple
steps
• Multistep pathways can amplify a signal: A few
molecules can produce a large cellular
response
• Multistep pathways provide more opportunities
for coordination and regulation of the cellular
response
Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

35. Signal Transduction Pathways

• The molecules that relay a signal from receptor
to response are mostly proteins
• Like falling dominoes, the receptor activates
another protein, which activates another, and
so on, until the protein producing the response
is activated
• At each step, the signal is transduced into a
different form, usually a shape change in a
protein
Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

36. Protein Phosphorylation and Dephosphorylation

• In many pathways, the signal is transmitted by
a cascade of protein phosphorylations
• Protein kinases transfer phosphates from ATP
to protein, a process called phosphorylation
Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

37.

• Protein phosphatases remove the
phosphates from proteins, a process called
dephosphorylation
• This phosphorylation and dephosphorylation
system acts as a molecular switch, turning
activities on and off

39. Small Molecules and Ions as Second Messengers

• The extracellular signal molecule that binds to
the receptor is a pathway’s “first messenger”
• Second messengers are small, nonprotein,
water-soluble molecules or ions that spread
throughout a cell by diffusion
• Second messengers participate in pathways
initiated by G protein-coupled receptors and
receptor tyrosine kinases
• Cyclic AMP and calcium ions are common
second messengers
Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

40. Cyclic AMP

• Cyclic AMP (cAMP) is one of the most widely
used second messengers
• Adenylyl cyclase, an enzyme in the plasma
membrane, converts ATP to cAMP in response
to an extracellular signal

• Many signal molecules trigger formation of
cAMP
• Other components of cAMP pathways are G
proteins, G protein-coupled receptors, and
protein kinases
• cAMP usually activates protein kinase A, which
phosphorylates various other proteins
• Further regulation of cell metabolism is
provided by G-protein systems that inhibit
adenylyl cyclase

44. Calcium Ions and Inositol Triphosphate (IP3)

• Calcium ions (Ca2+) act as a second
messenger in many pathways
• Calcium is an important second messenger
because cells can regulate its concentration

• The cell’s response to an extracellular signal is
sometimes called the “output response”
Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

51. Nuclear and Cytoplasmic Responses

• Ultimately, a signal transduction pathway leads
to regulation of one or more cellular activities
• The response may occur in the cytoplasm or
may involve action in the nucleus
• Many signaling pathways regulate the
synthesis of enzymes or other proteins, usually
by turning genes on or off in the nucleus
• The final activated molecule may function as a
transcription factor

59. Fine-Tuning of the Response

• Multistep pathways have two important
benefits:
– Amplifying the signal (and thus the response)
– Contributing to the specificity of the response
Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

60. Signal Amplification

• Enzyme cascades amplify the cell’s response
• At each step, the number of activated products
is much greater than in the preceding step
Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

61. The Specificity of Cell Signaling and Coordination of the Response

• Different kinds of cells have different
collections of proteins
• These different proteins allow cells to detect
and respond to different signals
• Even the same signal can have different effects
in cells with different proteins and pathways
• Pathway branching and “cross-talk” further help
the cell coordinate incoming signals

65. Signaling Efficiency: Scaffolding Proteins and Signaling Complexes

• Scaffolding proteins are large relay proteins
to which other relay proteins are attached
• Scaffolding proteins can increase the signal
transduction efficiency by grouping together
different proteins involved in the same pathway

67. Termination of the Signal

• Inactivation mechanisms are an essential
aspect of cell signaling
• When signal molecules leave the receptor, the
receptor reverts to its inactive state
Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

68. Concept 11.5: Apoptosis (programmed cell death) integrates multiple cell-signaling pathways

• Apoptosis is programmed or controlled cell
suicide
• A cell is chopped and packaged into vesicles
that are digested by scavenger cells
• Apoptosis prevents enzymes from leaking out
of a dying cell and damaging neighboring cells
Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

70. Apoptosis in the Soil Worm Caenorhabditis elegans

• Apoptosis is important in shaping an organism
during embryonic development
• The role of apoptosis in embryonic
development was first studied in
Caenorhabditis elegans
• In C. elegans, apoptosis results when specific
proteins that “accelerate” apoptosis override
those that “put the brakes” on apoptosis

74. Apoptotic Pathways and the Signals That Trigger Them

• Caspases are the main proteases (enzymes
that cut up proteins) that carry out apoptosis
• Apoptosis can be triggered by:
– An extracellular death-signaling ligand
– DNA damage in the nucleus
– Protein misfolding in the endoplasmic
reticulum
Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

75.

• Apoptosis evolved early in animal evolution
and is essential for the development and
maintenance of all animals
• Apoptosis may be involved in some diseases
(for example, Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s);
interference with apoptosis may contribute to
some cancers
